As for not carrying, why? :confused5
Well, my years of martial arts training should contribute considerably in a situation of "needs." j/k. Seriously, I do realize irrespective of my speed and training, I can't beat a bullet or a gang of idiots. I guess I'm just not quite ready to carry ... yet. I'm sure I'll ease my way into it by doing a few selective-carry.

Thanks to everyone for your input.
To paraphrase a famous saying - "don't bring your fists and feet to a gunfight. ;-) Seriously, once you start to carry, it doesn't take long to get used to it. In short order, you will not feel right when you don't carry.

I am a pistol newbie from Fort Worth and, obviously, a CHL newbie. Hope everyone is doing well.

My question is whether I should apply my CHL online prior to attending the class. All of the CHL classes I am investigating do offer the paper packet. Nonetheless, should I still apply in advance via the online application? Does it speed up the process?

Thanks, Ken

FWIW... I have a new Springfield XDM 9mm w/ 4.5 inch barrel and a few basic mods. I am also in the process of acquiring a CZ SP-01 Shadow Target. For HD, I use a Benelli Nova 12 ga. shotgun. I intend on developing my shooting skills to do IDPA and USPSA. Although I probably won't carry, I do want the option to do so.
Welcome newbie Ken. I am doing well, thanks. You wanted some advice? I think you should carry. :tiphat:
